You don't see them in this diagram,
-
but if you looked at a real heart you would see that that's true.
-
The right and left side of the heart are divided into two chambers,
-
atrium, ventricle, atrium, ventricle:
-
left ventricle, right ventricle, right atrium, left atrium.
-
The inflows and the outflows are guarded by valves
-
and there are four valves that are important here.
-
There's a valve which is shown by this sort of floppy structure here
-
between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
-
There's another valve between the left ventricle and the aorta.
-
Same thing on the other side,
-
there's a valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle,
